Thank you, Javen.  I worry that I'll be adding duct tape to OPCPackage, but let 
me put together a patch and we can decide if adding an InlinePackage is too 
Frankenstein-y for POI.

This would probably be of interest to users of POI who are not necessarily 
using Tika.

If someone spends the effort to add support for a Microsoft Office format, POI 
seems like a better host.

All,
  On TIKA-2179 [1], Sean Story submitted a document that appears to be a
2006 ML format .xml file.  It appears to inline the components of a regular 
docx into a single xml file, no zip.  Is it worth the effort to build a 
read-only subclass of OPCPackage (say, InlinePackage) that would parallel our 
ZipPackage?  Or would it be better to handle this purely on the Tika side and 
rewrite the file as a temporary ZipFile that can be read by our current 
OPCPackage?
  Thank you.

           Best,

                   Tim
